<TITLE>03. Par 10-13</TITLE>L-10 And I took it upon myself while I was waiting for the tents to be--to be made, that I would do this. And thinking of terms of the tent, and all this great expense, and you see in the vision why I left the field, because I--I went fifteen thousand dollars in debt in a meeting before I would beg the people for money; I wouldn't do it. I--I made a promise to God, and I wouldn't do it, and I come off the field.
And now, turning right back around, after owing, being in debt now fifteen thousand dollars in California, I'm borrowing a hundred thousand dollars to go with this tent. That means that I'm--I'm--I believe what I'm talking about. Yes, sir. It's from the Lord; it's from the Lord.
And the good thing about it, a real good friend, rich man, but a servant of the Lord, said, "Brother Branham, I'll let you have it without one penny interest. Don't have to pay nothing back but just the real--what you borrow. You don't have to pay any interest on it." Well, that was wonderful. See?
I said, "Thank You, Lord. I knew You're moving right along."

L-11 And now, say, I'd like to pitch that tent out here somewhere, out here for about six weeks, and right here in Twin Cities and--and have about a six weeks revival with every church. Just let down your barriers now and your differences, and... Wouldn't that be marvelous to come in and shake hands with one another. And not just have a prayer for a person, then when the enemy comes back to attack them, bring him right back again, that's the thing to do, stay right there till it's over. And just make it night after night after night for four to six weeks, or something like that, until God says, "All right, I'm finished now, go elsewhere." That would be the kind of revival to have.
I've often wondered what it would produce; each night it's always gained in momentum. And I just wondered what it would do to stay long enough. And to wonder just how this taken place, and I was all fixed up and was going to go to Phoenix for my first meeting. Because I kind of halfway promised to pinch hit for Brother Roberts out there, while he was gone to Australia.

L-12 And while I was going to making them, why, Mr. Allen came in, and he just wasn't going to leave until up in March, and I'd forgot about what the vision said, that it was dark people in another country, and so forth. And then Mr. Allen taken the place, then, "Well you want to come anyhow? Mr. Allen's going to stay."
And I said, "Oh, no, huh-uh. No, not if Brother Allen is there; there's no need of two of us being there the same time." And then about two days after that, the Lord revealed to me, He said, "I never told you to go to Phoenix in that vision, it was amongst dark people, Old Mexico." I thought, "Well, praise the Lord." Just exactly.
You know, God, He--His sovereign grace will override our mistakes and our ignorance. Don't you believe that? Well, praise His Name, we love Him tonight. And just a small group of us in the church tonight, but we've gathered for this purpose, for the benefit of lost souls and the Kingdom of God.

L-13 Now, I chosen for a subject tonight, 'The Hidden Life." And I want to read for some Scripture reading tonight, found in Hebrews the 10th chapter, beginning about the 19th verse, and I'll read this:
 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
 By a new and living way, which He has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh;
 And having a high priest over the house of God;
 Let us draw near with a true heart... full of assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from a evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for He is faithful that has promised;)
May the Lord add His blessings to the reading of His Word.
